The Substitute Madam Amazes the World Once More

Mo Zhu's mother remarried after her father went missing, and she had lived in the countryside with her elderly grandmother ever since. The girl who had no parents wanted to protect herself. Therefore, to avoid getting bullied, she had turned wild since she was a child—she played truant, fought, and drank. There was nothing she did not know how to do. She was a problematic student in the eyes of her teachers, a big sister in the eyes of her classmates, and a hooligan in the eyes of her acquaintances. When she was eighteen, her birth mother retrieved her to live at her stepfather's house. Everyone in the village claimed that she was going to live a happy life in the city, that her mother had not forgotten that she had a daughter here. "Mo Zhu, the Huo family is one of the most powerful families in the country. It's your good fortune to replace your younger sister in marrying into the Huo family. You have to cherish this opportunity," explained her mother patiently as she held Mo Zhu's hand. Mo Zhu's eyes were filled with sorrow. At that instant, she knew why her mother thought of her. Inviting her over to the city to enjoy life was simply a figment of her imagination—she was simply an exploitable piece of trash that her mother could sacrifice. The Eldest Young Master of the Huo family fell severely ill recently. He did not just develop a twisted personality, but also became violent and cruel. His face had been completely ruined and he had only two years left to live. Mo Zhu's younger sister was supposed to be Eldest Young Master Huo's fiancée, but the ruined young master was no longer a suitable match. Fearing the Huo family's influences, her mother did not dare to cancel the marriage, thus she sent Mo Zhu under the bus to protect her younger sister. However, was Mo Zhu truly just a useless simpleton who knew how to smoke, drink, and fight? No! That was simply a disguise she used for self-defense since she was a girl without parents. After marrying into the Huo family, she stopped smoking, drinking, and fighting. She became the best daughter-in-law a mother-in-law could ever have; the best wife a husband could ever have. What never occurred to anyone was she no longer flunked in her studies. In fact, she transformed into a straight-A student. Half a year later, she enrolled in the best university in the country and majored in specialized medicine. Determined to become an excellent doctor, she cured her husband's illness completely in merely two years. That handsome and suave Eldest Young Master Huo returned. After Huo Xuan's recovery, he allocated a huge budget and held the biggest wedding of the century for Mo Zhu. During the grand wedding ceremony, Huo Xuan announced during his speech, "In this lifetime, there are two people I'm most grateful for other than my parents. One of them is my mother-in-law. Thank you for despising me after I fell ill and forcing my wife to marry me in her younger sister's stead. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have met the most important person in my life! The second person must be my wife! She never despised me when I was at my lowest. Instead, she takes good care of me. She's an angel sent by God, and she has saved me with her forgiveness and kindness, granting me a second chance at life."

Can't Help Him

Editor: Atlas Studios

In the room, Ji Shu was sitting on the stool that Chief Zhang had brought in for her. Jiang Xun and Mo Zhu were beside her. The girl was leaning against the wall with her head lowered. Her eyelashes covered her eyes, making it impossible to see her expression.

Lu Ran suddenly looked terrified. "Why are you here?"

He stopped in front of Mo Zhu and roared at Chief Zhang, "Hurry up and move a stool for Ms. Mo!"

Chief Zhang was stunned. Why would Lu Ran be so respectful to this young lady? However, he did not dare to disobey Lu Ran's order and obediently followed it.

"Officer Lu." Mo Zhu looked at Lu Ran and sat down on the stool. Her legs were propped up on the stool and her posture was rather arrogant.

Her face was still expressionless. When Lu Ran saw her like this, he realized the problem. It was the young man at the interrogation table.

"This case doesn't need you anymore. I'll handle it myself," Lu Ran instructed Chief Zhang.

At that moment, Chief Zhang's back was already drenched in sweat. Thinking of how he had treated them previously in order to impress Ji Shu, he felt that he was done for.

The Ji family was nothing in front of Lu Ran. He left angrily.

After Chief Zhang left, Lu Ran looked at Ji Shu. "Tell me, what happened?" His voice was calm, but Ji Shu did not dare to meet his gaze.

But she was the daughter of the Ji family. Why would she be afraid of just a police officer?

"He stole my tickets." Ji Shu pointed at Lin Xiao.

Lu Ran looked at Mo Zhu and turned to look at Lin Xiao kindly. "Do you have any explanation?"

"I didn't," the young man said.

"Does Ms. Ji have any evidence?"

"Evidence? Ain't the ticket I have evidence?"

"Are you sure this ticket is yours, Ms. Ji?"

"Of…" Ji Shu blurted out, but when her eyes were on the ticket in her hand, it suddenly stopped there.

This, this ticket was actually a VIP ticket, and there were only ten VIP tickets in total. She did not manage to get them.

Before this, she had never seen this ticket before, and she naturally thought that they were hers.

At this moment, her expression changed.

"What's wrong, Ms. Ji? Did you discover that the ticket is not yours?" Mo Zhu, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke. She had a smile on her face, but it didn't feel like one to the others.

"This ticket isn't mine, but he still stole them. So what if I had taught him a lesson?" Ji Shu calmed down quickly. She was the daughter of the Ji family. So what if she taught a classmate a lesson? Would the Ji family let the police bully her?

"I gave him the ticket. Does Ms. Ji have any objections?" Mo Zhu stood up slowly.

"Since Lin Xiao hasn't stolen her ticker, can we leave?"

"Of course."

Lu Ran signaled the police officer to bring Lin Xiao out. "Jiang Xun, send Lin Xiao back."

Jiang Xun glanced at Mo Zhu and brought Lin Xiao out. Only Mo Zhu, Ji Shu, Lu Ran, and a police officer were left in the room.

"Ms. Ji has started a rumor and hurt someone, how should we deal with this?"

Lu Ran glanced at the police officer, and he replied, "Administrative detention for five days."

"What? You want to detain me? Do you have any idea who my dad is?" Ji Shu yelled at Lu Ran and the others.

"I need to make a call. Let me make a call." Ji Shu looked at the police officer.

"Let her make the call!" Lu Ran instructed before he left with Mo Zhu.

"Thank you for today."

"Ms. Mo, please don't stand on ceremony. We are the ones who should thank you." Previously, he and his team members were at their wits' end trying to catch a criminal. It was Mo Zhu who suddenly appeared and located the criminal's location, allowing them to rescue the hostage successfully. The hostage was one of their team members, and Mo Zhu was their team's savior.

In the police station, when Ji Shu called the Ji family, her father was furious that a small police station had dared to detain his daughter!

He immediately sent someone to the police station to redeem Ji Shu.

The Ji family arrived at the police station and when the receptionist heard that the person they wanted to bail was Ji Shu, she directly told them that they could not bail her out. All she mentioned was that someone from higher ranks had come.

When Father Ji heard about this, he immediately gave Chief Zhang a call. However, Chief Zhang didn't pick up after a long time. It was after a long while when the call was finally picked up.

"Chief Zhang, what do you mean by this?" Father Ji's voice was filled with anger. Chief Zhang had become the chief police officer with a lot of help from him.

"Mr. Ji, it's not that I don't want to help you, but I really can't. I've already been transferred."

"What?" Those two sentences were all Chief Zhang said before hanging up.

On the other side, Mo Zhu's phone rang.
